As a notice for non-US players, Daylight Saving Time (DST) has ended for Sword of the New World servers a few days ago. This means the server time is now GMT-8, instead of GMT-7. You can also check the server time (aka Sword Standard Time) at G1: Sword of the New World. To check your local time with respective to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), see here.

DST starts on the second Sunday of March, which is three or four weeks earlier than in the past, and it ends on the first Sunday of November... [Source]

Since the game client doesn't have a built-in server clock, I recommend FoxClocks browser add-on, if you run the game client in Window mode, and usually has Firefox browser active... Simply select "US Pacific" for add-on settings to show the time in the browser.
